Operating Manual Flytec 6020
For tests or acrobatic flights a sampling rate of 2 seconds
is recommended. However, the recommendation as standard
setting is a recording interval between 5 and 10 s. With it
also narrow curves are well recognisable, and the number
of data points for the external computing of OLC points
remains manageable. Factory setting here is 10 seconds.
For the beginning of a flight the following arrangement applies:
the start is recognized as soon as the ground speed
reaches at least 10 km/h for more than 60 seconds, or if
altitude difference within 60s is more than 30m.
In each case however, the previous flight history with up to 30
recording points is filed in the 6020-GPS memory. With it, and
at 10 sec. recording interval, even the last 3 minutes before
the start of the filed flight can be noted.

An end of flight is recognized under automatic recording if there is no speed for 60
seconds (less than 10 km/h speed or airspeed) and also if no change in altitude occurs.
Then the standard display screen is automatically switched to flight analysis. From this
moment on the “digital signature” of this flight is calculated and a notice is displayed in the
info field. Please wait until this calculation is completed. With short pressing on the
Page/ESC
On/Off
key
one returns to normal mode.
It is also possible to shift the instrument to manual recording. For this purpose it is
necessary to select under Main Setup Menu
⇒ User Settings ⇒ Flightmemory ⇒ Rec.
Auto/Man the value “No”.
This setting enables the recording to start approx. 10 seconds after switch-on and
is only stopped after the
Page/ESC
On/Off
key has been pressed for 3 seconds.
The start of recording is visible by the running “Flight time” counter. Please take into account
that altitude A1 may not be changed during recording process.
Caution: Make sure before the start that the GPS-Receiver indicates to receive at least
4 Satellites in order to achieve valid recordings.
Comment 1: in the Flight analysis are displayed max. values which appeared during the flight.
Due to the fact that the display screen is updated every second, the 1-second values are saved
for the flight analysis. If one undertakes a download of such a flight afterwards on the PC using
a program such as Flychart, SeeYou, CompeGPS, MaxPunkte etc., these programs are only
appropriate to analyse the flight records in IGC format. In the IGC file are saved the time of day
(UTC), position, barometric altitude, GPS-altitude and True Air Speed of the wind vane or pitot
pressure sensor. The programs calculate the Vario-meter values out of the altitude data.
If for instance, one has set a recording interval of 10s, and has made a height difference
of 5m during these 10 seconds, the Vario value of 0.5 m/s shall be calculated. However,
during this time a 1-second Vario value of 2m/s may have been performed. Only this value
shall be indicated on the Flight-Analysis page and is not subject to electronic readout.
Comment 2: Although the instrument is capable to store up to 100 flights, we recommend
to save the flights in regular intervals on a PC and to reformat the flight memory afterwards
by entering the command Main Setup Menu
⇒ Memory ⇒ Delete Flights. This procedure
ensures the safety of data storage of your precious flights and that the instrument may
perform new recordings again with a „refreshed“ flight memory.
